The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild ‘Expansion Pass’ Revealed

Season pass to provide access to upcoming DLC.

Nintendo has announced that they are planning on releasing an “Expansion Pass” for The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild when it is released in March and this pass will cost $19.99. Those who purchase it will be given access to two sets of DLC for the game that are planned to be released sometime this summer and during the holiday season.

The first piece of DLC will include a “Cave of Trials” challenge, a hard mode, and a new feature for the in-game map while the second piece will add in new challenges that will let players enjoy a new dungeon as well as a new and original story.

In something of an odd decision, this DLC will not be available for purchase separately meaning players must purchase the pass to obtain them, though those that do will immediately find three new chests appear in the game that contain special Nintendo Switch themed costumes and “useful items.”
